Considerations
Do you have a large family? Host many parties? Have a lot of odd-sized dishes? Consider a dishwasher with up to four rows of fold-down tines. No more hand-washing those few extra plates and bowls. Large upper racks hold tall glassware and deep bowls and versatile lower racks hold 12 place settings.
MICROWAVE-If you have a large family, or eat at home more often than not, you will want a microwave oven that is versatile. Choose one that can perform a variety of functions, such as conventional and convection cooking, for example. Convection cooking is especially important if you bake frequently.
Do you like to leave your countertop space free for food preparation and to display your favorite culinary items? An over-the-range microwave oven takes the microwave off the countertop, giving you more room to create your culinary masterpieces.
If you have small children, an over-the-range microwave oven offers another benefit. It puts the oven out of their reach, which helps promote safety in the kitchen.
OVENS-You don't have to be a gourmet chef to appreciate a well-made range. Your builder offers a variety of GE cooking products, which may include gas and electric, free-standing ranges and built-in styles.
If you prefer an electric range, you have a couple of choices in cooking surfaces to consider: our classic Calrod coil cooktop or our CleanDesign glass ceramic cooktop with a spill-proof frame. Some CleanDesign models feature an elongated cooking surface, ideal for rectangular or oval-shaped pans, and a convection cooking feature for the ultimate in cooking/baking convenience.
If you like cooking with gas, some GE gas ranges feature a Sealed Burner Design for easier cleanup. And a Maximum Output Burner for faster boiling. And a Precise Simmer Burner for low, even heat distribution for delicate foods and sauces.
Both gas and electric GE Spectra ranges are available with the TrueTemp System: the most accurate oven in America! GE's exclusive TrueTemp System manages and maintains the oven temperature you selected. And it's more accurate than any leading manufacturers' brand.
Among leading manufacturers' brands, the new Free-Standing GE Spectra electric oven is the largest, most accurate oven in America.
Which type of energy are you most comfortable cooking with -- gas or electric? No matter which you choose, you'll appreciate the quality of cooking and ease of cleaning delivered by GE Cooking products.
If you cook at home frequently for family and friends, an easy-to-clean cooking surface is essential. Consider a GE
Clean Design glass ceramic cooking surface.

The SmartLogic Electronic Control delivers more consistent oven temperatures for exceptional cooking results.
REFRIGERATOR-Today's refrigerators do so much more than simply keep food cold. They serve as climate-controlled storage devices, food and beverage centers even workstations!
If you have a large family and busy lifestyle, choose a refrigerator with family-friendly features such as built-in ice and water dispensers and slide-out, spill-proof shelves for easy access and cleaning.
Before deciding, take a moment to consider the appearance, design, and convenience you want from your refrigerator. In terms of design styles, GE offers Top-Freezer, Bottom-Freezer and Side-by-Side models. The CustomStyle Side-By-Side and Top-Freezer refrigerators make it easier than ever to achieve the beautiful, built-in look of a custom kitchen.
GE also gives you the latest choices in decorative colors. Choose from White, Black, Bisque, Almond and Stainless Steel to complement your kitchen's dιcor.
WASHER AND DRYERS-When purchasing your washer and dryer, consider the size of your laundry loads. If you have a large family, or young children, chances are you do a lot of laundry. GE's Super 3.2 cubic foot capacity washer is one of the largest capacity washers available today. It lets you wash more clothes per load, saving you valuable time and money. The washer's SpotSoak, SensorWash, GentleWash, and Stain Removal Guide work together to extend the life of your clothing by washing thoroughly, yet gently. The matching dryer with Sensor Dry has an extra-wide opening for easy access to clothes.
In addition, consider which performance features you want. If your wardrobe consists of some of the latest designer fabrics, choose a model with a cycle designed especially for them. If you consistently forget about those clothes in the dryer, choose a dryer with an automatic signal that alerts you when clothes are ready. If you constantly have to shift loads during a wash cycle, consider a washer with a self-balancing feature.
Because laundry centers are now located closer to family living areas, the color of your washer and dryer should complement your interior color schemes. Another consideration is laundry noise. To reduce noise that could extend into these busy areas of your home, GE includes a Quiet-By-Design feature on its washers and dryers. Ask about the Hush Insulation Package, too, to ensure maximum peace and quiet in your new U.S. Home.
